This is excellent news as Quake 2 is my favorite of the series by far. I had no idea Quake 4 was picking up where it left off. I though it was going to be another Quake 3 multiplayer game (not my cup of tea). I played through it and the expansions many, many times. Maybe I'll see if I can get it to load up on my rig tonight.

I still regularly play Quake 1 with the zeus bot in cooperative and if I get bored enough, deathmatch/team deathmatch. Still a lot of fun after all these years. With the addition of toqasquake (or whatever it's called) the graphics are almost passable.

Quake 4 looks good and it sounds like something Doom 3 could have been, a singleplayer game where you AREN'T ALONE! I get so tired of all these RTS games that pit you against the world. Even though they're beatable, they're just not realistic at all. Quake 4 looks like you'll have squadmates throughout the entire game, something I wish Doom 3 had. (Even just 1 or 2 fellow marines with you would have been good.)

Lets just hope that while including a good singleplayer campaign, they don't forget about multiplayer either (like they did in Doom 3) and still have at least a couple of game types shipping with it. Bots would be a plus also. And as already mentioned.. coop! I think that's only wishful thinking though.
